There’s a reason I’m not the fashion blogger at Momformation. I mean, as a mama who doesn’t mind being the most casually dressed woman in the room (because someone else might feel very awkward in that role) with two messy boys, I’m a huge fan of sale racks at Target and Kohl’s.

But what if my boys were, say, asked to stand up at a wedding? No doubt I’d be gritting my teeth while forking over some serious cash to provide them with appropriate duds that they’d likely only wear once and soon outgrow. Lots of parents must feel the same way, because the fancy-pants online rental service, Gagas, is going gangbusters renting out, well, fancy pants. They’ve also got flower girls dresses and other classy clothes and accessories for dapper young ones.

You can choose from hundreds of options and rent that must-have dress for three weeks at a cost of about $20. Hmmm, this thrifty option might help you save for those fab shoes you’re coveting…. What do you think?
